He-Man has Arnold Schwarzenegger's face... The body looks fine but the face is horrid. Same with Skeletor. The skull is too big. sculptor fails to realize that Skeletor's head has no flesh or muscle on it, so therefore should be slightly smaller, not larger, than He-Man's head!

Oh well. Really wish they'd make action figures based on the Sideshow statue (I think it was Sideshow. too lazy to search).

What other MOTU media has ever portrayed Skeletor's skull head as sized realistically to his body?

That's the point. These AREN'T like any other MOTU pieces. They are going for a "realistic" look, judging by the blatant rip-off of Ahhh-nuld's face instead of the cartoon or original figure's face... if realism is what they are aiming for, Skeletor is way off.

They're definitely going for a bit more of a "realistic" look, but they aren't going quite as far as you say they are. If they were really going for ultimate realism, (one of) Skeletor's face(s) would look exactly like a real skull. Neither do; they both still look relatively cartoony.
